"Hey, have you been watching any TV series lately?"
"TV series? Which one?"
"It's a legal drama. Quite good, actually. The performance of Kobayashi-san, my favorite actor in the series, is outstanding. The courtroom scenes between him and the criminals are so intense, it's really exciting to watch."
In the company, two employees are chatting during their free ti about the TV series they're currently watching.
Watching TV series is a popular pasti in Japan.
Even though it's the 21st century, the influence of an excellent TV series is still remarkable.
Especially in Japan, people usually avoid gossiping about others in social situations and rarely offend others' privacy.
Therefore, discussing TV series and sports events has beco their favorite activity.
If a good series appears, it will inevitably cause a stir in society.
However, Takayuki doesn't pay much attention to it.
His interest in Japanese dramas is average; he has only watched a few very popular ones, like Tokyo Love Story and The Lonely Gourt.
Right now, his mind is focused on a new ga project.
He actually has many mature blueprints for electronic gas in his mind.
However, he doesn't want to make them, or rather, he doesn't want to make them for now.
But without doing sothing, he feels a bit bored.
So, despite much thought, Takayuki hasn't figured out what ga to make next.
"Good morning, President!"
"President!"
Two employees, who were discussing series, greet Takayuki with admiration as he walks by.
"Oh, hello. Keep up the good work, and thank you for your dedication."
Takayuki responds casually and then imrses himself again in contemplating the new ga.
This ti, he wants to create sothing different.
How about making a simulation managent ga?
Or a city-building ga like City Skylines?
These city-building gas still have a market.
In the previous world, city-building gas always had a stable audience, similar to real-ti strategy gas.
And these gas require patience. Sotis playing one session could take dozens of hours, easily captivating players.
But Takayuki feels the timing isn't quite right.
Developing these types of gas on a gaming console would be difficult. These gas are better suited for PC gaming.
However, this type of ga could serve as a bargaining chip. In the future, if there's any technological cooperation with Morgan Corporation, he can use this ga as a bargaining tool.
So, building gas can be passed for now.
What else should he do?
"Hey, have you been watching any legal dramas lately?"
"Are you talking about the NHK one? Of course, I have! NHK finally produced a good modern drama after so many years. It's really rare. My whole family loves this series."
Takayuki looks up and sees a few people nearby gathered together discussing TV series over coffee.
Legal dramas, huh?
Lawyers...
Sohow, an animated character suddenly appears in Takayuki's mind.
It's a man in a suit, with a hedgehog-like hairstyle and exaggerated expressions from ti to ti.
Ryūichi Naruhodō.
That's the character's na.
And his profession is a defense attorney, originating from a ga related to lawyers.
Sotis the audience of a ga can be sowhat related to the current social trends.
If you happen to make a ga that fits well with the current social trend, it will receive extra attention and might even have a chance to beco a hit ga.
In the gaming industry, becoming a hit generally ans expanding the audience.
Looking at the people nearby discussing, it's obvious that the legal drama they're talking about is indeed very attractive.
So, why not adapt the ga called Ace Attorney?
Of course, it's just a na drop. Ace Attorney will be developed as it is, maybe with so additional crossover plots, but it won't have much to do with the original script.
However, just making a text adventure ga doesn't seem enough.
Ace Attorney itself isn't very technically challenging, and developing it should be straightforward. So, why not simultaneously develop other gas?
Right, if he's not doing simulation building gas for now, why not make a life simulation ga?
This series is known for its nurous DLCs, and despite that, the ga has a considerable number of fans. They are deeply imrsed in the virtual world of life. It sells well in the US, and even if the DLC prices exceed the ga's original price later on, fans are still willing to spend money on it.
This ga, in terms of revenue, is quite good and has stable popularity.
If he speeds up a bit, developing both gas together probably won't take more than half a year, which will be a good complent to different types of gas.
